Proving that jokes lose all power of funniness once they have to be explained.
Well, at least the egg one (by far my favourite of the two) is okay.
Time for some thrilling heroics.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I saw one of his cartoons with a huge egg banging the hell out of a chicken, and the caption "Who came first?"
This reminds me of a tee shirt a friend of mine used to have the had a drawing of a large, hairy penis with legs chasing a large, hairy vagina with legs, and a caption that said "One fucking thing after another."
I doubt it was the same cartoonist, though. I think that tee was hand made by a friend of his.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Both cartoons sound like something from The Far Side, by Gary Larson.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Nah, they don't sound at all Larsonesque to me. (Now, if they were cows... )

Hey, it was your idea. Take some responsibility.

They're definitely not Larson -- and I'd be surprised (though not unhappy) to learn that he'd published porn cartoons.
